Topic: Development and Pollution
Honorable Chair, and fellow Delegates,
Nowadays, the whole world got Greenhouse gas emissions, so does Argentina. And Argentina wants to deal with this issue. In 2008, one ice barrier of Moreno Glacier in Argentina has collapsed because of the Greenhouse gas emissions. In Argentina, 47% of the Greenhouse gas emissions are com from the fossil fuel, and 4% are from industrial emission. But 44% are all come from the gas which ruminant animals, like cows, sheep discharged. Because Argentina is a country which focused on livestock breeding. At the same time, Argentina have found many ways to deal with this issue. One of the solution is that we have find a way to reduce the gas which cows, and sheep discharge to the air. And they found out that a cow which has the weight of 550kg, it has to discharge 800 to 1000 liters methane per day into the air. And the methane has much more influence to the Greenhouse gas emissions than the carbon dioxide. And they had a solution to deal with this issue. They put a air bag on the back of the animal and connect to its stomach. And many countries in South America support this solution. Although we have already got the solution to solve the part of livestock breeding, we still have to work on the other part of produce the Greenhouse gas.
